Drake Dual Time Automatic Silver Blue Watch ES-8291-22

The Watch

Thomas Earnshaw is a British heritage brand with over a century of watchmaking excellence. Celebrated as one of the first houses to craft sophisticated marine chronometers, the brand today offers a remarkable range of timepieces defined by their exquisite design and meticulous attention to detail. It proudly presents this ES-8291-22 Drake Dual Time Automatic watch for men. Built around a round case in stainless steel, it sports a silver tone and a brushed finish, measuring 42.50 mm in diameter, 10.80 mm thick, and weighing 200 g in total. These proportions are perfectly suited to men's wrists. A domed sapphire crystal covers the dial with precision, shielding it from shocks and scratches. The bezel, secured by screws, adds a bold, robust character to the overall look. The central elements are easily adjusted via the gray crown with a knurled finish positioned at 3 o'clock. Note that the timepiece features a transparent, screwed case back that guarantees 5 ATM water resistance while letting you admire the beauty of its movement.

The Dial

Every detail of this watch's dial was designed to embody masculinity on men's wrists. In a rich blue tone, it features a minute railroad track and 12 luminescent indices for clear timekeeping at a glance. The two central hands share the same luminescent treatment - the short hand for hours, the long one for minutes - ensuring legibility even in the dark. A 12-hour subdial at 9 o'clock serves as a second time zone display, adding a practical layer to the watch's functionality. A moon phase subdial sits at 12 o'clock, tracking the lunar cycle in style. The brand's name is inscribed at 3 o'clock, topped by its logo for a more distinctive look.

The Movement

This watch runs on an automatic movement. Precise and reliable, it powers the subdials and hands with smooth efficiency.

The Strap

This watch features a strap crafted from stainless steel. Sporting a gray tone and a brushed finish, it is made up of 3 rows of links with a lug width of 20 mm. A deployment clasp keeps it securely fastened to your wrist.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 50 meters - or 5 ATM in watchmaking terms - this timepiece can handle the occasional splash, but isn't built for prolonged water exposure. A quick shower now and then is fine, but our watch specialists strongly advise keeping it away from baths, pools, and the sea. In short: no swimming, no diving, no extended contact with water.
